A Thousand Shall Fall

The Electrifying Story of a Soldier and His Family Who Dared to Practice Their Faith in Hitler's Germany

By: Susi Hasel Mundy

Narrated by: Lauren Mazzio, Nicholas Mazzio

The electrifying true testimony of Franz Hasel, dramatically narrated with original cinematic score.

Pacifist Franz Hasel was drafted into one of Hitler’s elite troops to build bridges at the front lines. Just before he was sent deep into Russia - where all but seven of his 1,200 man unit would die - he secretly discarded his gun, fearing that, as the company sharpshooter, he might be tempted to kill.

In Russia he faced a new problem: how to warn the local Jews before the SS got to them. Back at home, Franz’s wife, Helene, and their four children were fighting their own battles. Pressured to join the Nazi party, she announced, “I belong to the party of Jesus Christ.”

“Tomorrow night your children will be taken from you unless you join the party,” Herr Doering screamed.

And she had another secret. One day, the gestapo knocked at her door. “Are you hiding a Jew?” they demanded.

This is the true, soul-soaring story of one desperate family who chose to be faithful whatever the cost, and found refuge in the shadow of the Almighty. May you always be found faithful as you stand for the truth whatever trials you may be facing.

Great Story - But Audio Experience Takes Away

As most have shared, this story is wonderful and I am inspired while my faith is strengthened hearing it for the first time.

However…Audible, I am disappointed you allowed this to get past your audio standards. I understand having a musical score might add to the drama, as it does for a well d

good overall

really good story good performance amazing miracles! music in the background was a little overpowering would have been nice if it was slightly softer.

Amazing story

Amazing story of how God is always there for us. When we think that all Hope is gone, he always comes through. The only thing I did not like about this audible version is that the music in the background is a bit distracting and sometimes too loud for the talking. It makes it hard to hear.

Great book!

The only thing I would change is the song at the end of each chapter. It is a nice song but when it first played I thought the book was over. It became monotonous. A little too long to play over and over at the end of each chapter.
Thank you for the book! It’s a wonderful reminder in todays crazy world that God still takes care of His people and we need to obey no matter what.
